Recycling small waste electrical items and batteries
Recycling small electrical items
Any small electrical item that uses batteries or plugs can be recycled, provided that it can fit into a standard sized carrier bag. Examples include toasters, torches, kettles and household batteries.
To recycle small electrical items, place them in a carrier bag (no black sacks) and put them next to your waste or recycling bin on collection day. Please do not put these items in your bin.
Please note: We cannot collect light bulbs or fluorescent tubes.
Further details of how to recycle large electrical items can be found on the Bulky Household Waste web page.
Recycling small household batteries
To recycle small household batteries, place them in small plastic bag e.g. a sandwich bag and leave them on top of your waste or recycling bin on collection day. Please do not put these items in your bin.
Please note: We cannot collect car batteries or large commercial batteries.
